Overview

New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum has confirmed he will retire from international cricket after the ODI and the Test series against Australia this month. After defeating India 4-1 in the ODI series in their own backyard, the World Champions will be hungry for more success and stop McCullum from finishing his career on a high.

Australia's tour of New Zealand will include three ODIs and two Tests, with the first ODI to take place at Eden Park on Wednesday. Both the Kiwis and the visitors come into this series after their success in the last ODI series against Pakistan and India respectively.

Shaun Marsh will open alongside David Warner after Aaron Finch was forced to be left out of the squad due to the injury he picked up in the T20I clash against India. The pitch favours very good batting conditions, but there could be trouble from bowlers with the swinging deliveries.
